 Sri Dalada Maligawa or theTemple of the Sacred Tooth Relic

 Located in the royal palace complex which houses the relic of the tooth of Buddha. Since ancient times, the relic has played an important role in local politics because it is believed that whoever holds the relic holds the governance of the country. 

Kandy was the last capital of the Sri Lankan kings and is a UNESCO world heritage site.

Whales & Dolphins (at Mirissa, Sri-Lanka)

Mirissa is the best place for Whale and Dolphin watching in Sri Lanka. In warm Indian ocean you can see Blue whales, Sperm whales, Fin whales, sometimes Killer whales, and Common dolphins, Bottlenose dolphins, Spinner dolphins, Risso's dolphins and Striped dolphins. Sometimes you can also see turtles and various fish species, like Bluefin tuna and flying fish.
Whales are always about 10 minutes under water and then they occur for few seconds on the surface of ocean.  

The whale watching season starts in November and ends in April. The high season is from December to March when the ocean is warm and calm.
